Chief Executive magazine’s ninth annual “Best and Worst States for Business” survey finds that the ten best states for business are all led by Republican governors.

According to the survey of 736 CEOs, the ten best states for business are:

Texas

Florida

North Carolina

Tennessee

Indiana

Arizona

Virginia

South Carolina

Nevada

Georgia

The worst state for business was California. Only three of the bottom ten states--New Jersey, Michigan, and Pennsylvania--are led by Republican governors.

The survey asked business executives to grade states on factors such as taxation, regulation, workforce quality, and living environment.
